• Activation energy: the _________________ _________________ of energy needed to _________________ a chemical reaction.

• _________________ _________________ the _________________ _________________ of the chemical reactions that they catalyse.

• Due to the _________________ with the

enzyme, the _________________ in the _________________ molecules are _________________ (less stable).

• The higher the concentration of competitive inhibitors, the slower / faster the rate of reaction. • At higher substrate concentrations, the effect of a competitive / non-competitive inhibitor can

be overcome. It therefore has _____________________ on maximum rate of reaction. • Since a non-competitive inhibitor prevents the enzyme activity regardless of substrate

concentration, it always reduces / enhances the max rate of reaction.
